There was a lot of snow in the sky.
The earth is covered with silver.
In the early morning, the sky was bright, and the round of sunrise that used to illuminate the earth was now shrouded in layers of dark clouds, and the light between heaven and earth seemed to have a trace of haze, and it was also shrouded in a layer of gray and white.
"The scout battalion is eight hundred miles to expedite the battle report, and the Wei army is dispatched" Between the horse's hooves, the wind and snow danced, and a thunderous voice shook the general of the Wu army in Baima Pass.
"Immediately let all the generals above the division headquarters immediately concentrate in the big camp" The general of the Wu army in the White Horse Pass was concentrated in the camp, and his eyes looked at this scout who had rushed to report for eight hundred miles.
"Say" Chen Zhi solemnly spoke.
"Report to the commander, at noon yesterday, that is, about nine hours ago, the Wei army suddenly sent troops to defend the war, there were about 30,000 Wei soldiers, including about 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 foot soldiers, who went out of the west gate of Xia Wei and headed southwest."
This scout is a company commander of a scout battalion directly under the headquarters of the Bashu Legion, and he said respectfully.
"Who is the leader of this Wei army?"
When Chen Zhi heard this, his face became a little nervous, his eyes widened, and he hurriedly asked.
"Report to the commander, it is Zhang Ren, the chief general of the Wei army" Scout Soldier said.
"Do you see clearly?"
"The battalion commander personally identified it, absolutely yes" "Alright, you have done well, from now on, your scout camp will continue to keep an eye on them, and don't let any of their soldiers escape from your scout camp's sight" "Yes" After this scout left, there was a sudden silence in the Chinese army camp, and although the generals were excited, they looked at the main general and waited for the main general's order.
Chen Zhi squinted slightly, thinking of the hope of strategic success, his eyes suddenly became hot: "Commander Xu, now that Zhang Rendu has been dispatched, it seems that the Wei army is really fooled, they have divided their troops to the southwest to rescue the Baimaqiang tribe, and it is time for us to send troops to besiege and debate."
"It's time to send troops, the soldiers are fast, don't slack off, the weather is getting colder and colder, if we wait until the depths of winter, our strong offensive campaign will inevitably pay a heavy price, so we must take down the defense as soon as possible, and before besieging the defense, we must also have them plan the back road of Xiliang and annihilate these Wei troops" Xu Sheng nodded and said categorically.
"If you want to stop them from withdrawing from Liangzhou, there is only one way, use the ability of cavalry assault, detour back to their northern flank, take Qishan first, block their retreat, and they won't be able to escape."
"Yes, the cavalry must be moved first" "I think it's better to let the Fourteenth Army move first and eat the part of the soldiers and horses that have already left the city."
"If you want to eat them, I'm afraid it's not easy, after all, they have 30,000 heavy soldiers, and they will suffer a lot of casualties in a fight."
"Battles in the wilderness are better than sieges" "I think it's better to concentrate the forces to take down the lower argument first, eat their main force, and take care of this force" At this time, although the generals in the camp had just woken up, their fighting spirit was ignited, and their fighting spirit was high, and their momentum was rising, and they had the courage to annihilate the Wei army.
"I can't send troops now" An abrupt voice appeared, like a basin of cold water, which extinguished the blood boiling of the generals.
"Zhuge Overseer" Chen Zhi raised his head suddenly, looked at Zhuge Liang, who was belatedly coming, and hurriedly asked: "Now that the Wei army has moved, they have divided their troops out of the city and headed in the direction of the Baimaqiang tribe, why can't we send troops?"
"I hear you" Zhuge Liang's expression was very calm, this was his plan, but he did not have the slightest joy of the success of the plan, his face was a little dignified, he tidied up the somewhat messy robe on his body, and then walked up to the sand table, looked at the sand table and said: "It's not time to send troops now, we need to wait."
"Why?"
The generals really don't understand.
At this time, shouldn't we hurry up time, race against time, and argue with an infantry before the Wei army reacts "The Wei army is moving, and they are indeed dividing their troops, but can you be sure that they are really bait?"
Zhuge Liang's eyes were sharp like blades, looking at the faces of the generals swept by, and then pointed to several routes from Wudu County to the location of the Cizhi River on the sand table, and said analytically: "It takes time for us to send troops to surround and argue, and it takes time for them to send troops to the Baimaqiang tribe, there is obviously a time difference of a few days, if they are really fooled, take this road, the march of tens of thousands of people on this road, without five days, it is impossible to enter the Baimaqiang tribe, but we only need three days to besiege and die.
If there will be a deployment that we can't think of" "What the Overseers mean is that they are clearly sending troops, but in fact it is just a pretense, and when our soldiers are surrounded and arguing, they will immediately kill a horse pistol and attack our Fourteenth Army from behind."
When Fa Zheng heard this, his heart moved, and he thought of a possibility, his eyes became extremely awe-inspiring, and he blurted out directly.
"No, it won't" "Could it be that the Wei army has seen through our plan and wants to plan it?"
The generals immediately calmed down.
"Do you think it's possible for the Fa to say this?"
Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Zhi and Xu Sheng, the two commanders.
"Very likely" Chen Zhi thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but gasp, forcing himself to calm down: "If this is the case, our 14th Army will face a flanking attack when it captures Xiafang, and it will inevitably suffer heavy casualties."
"So we have to wait" Zhuge Liang drew a line in a position on the sand table, and said: "If we want to send troops, at least after the Wei army has crossed this line, Xia Biancheng will be a meal on the plate sooner or later, the more we are about to succeed, the more cautious we must be, and we must not underestimate the wisdom of the Wei army's main general."
"The Overseer is right, in fact, according to the current situation, we will be breached by us sooner or later, and at this time, we must stabilize our mentality, and we must not increase the casualties of the soldiers because of impatience."
Xu Sheng nodded in agreement.
"Then we'll wait" Chen Zhi ordered: "Fa Zheng, you immediately send someone to the various departments to deliver the commander's order, continue to wait, do not move, if there is any unauthorized action, military law will deal with it" "Yes" Fa Zheng nodded, and began to send his staff officers to various departments to convey the military orders commanding the battalion.
Waiting is also a war.
In the waiting time, this will be a psychological game between the two armies, and whoever is stable at this time will be the winner.
Two days passed Sima Yi in the city was a little unstable, he was pacing back and forth in the camp, he couldn't figure out why Wu Jun didn't move, after half a ring, he looked at Yang Xiu and asked, "Wu Jun hasn't made any moves yet" "Nope" Yang Xiu shook his head and said, "It's quiet."
"Where is Zhang Ren's army now?"
"If you follow the itinerary arranged before, their soldiers and horses should be in this position now, this is a desolate town, Xidang Town, after this town, they will soon leave Wudu County" Yang Xiu pointed to a location.
"If their soldiers and horses go out of Wudu, I am afraid that it will be too late to turn around the march when they want, although the chief general of the Wu army did not expect that I would aim at their Baima Pass, but they prevented Zhang Ren's soldiers and horses from killing a horse pistol and fighting back, now we are in big trouble."
Sima Yi calmed down and thought about it for a while, and after half a sound, he gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "They are really calm."
"General, what should we do now to change the strategy?"

"The danger is the opportunity to turn defeat into victory, the opportunity is rare, it cannot be changed, Zhang Ren will definitely find a way to delay the march, as far as possible to the east, although the distance is getting farther and farther away, but their position to the east is getting closer and closer" Sima Yi calmed down, stared at the march route of the marching map, stared at the location of Baima Pass, he became ruthless, and said coldly: "I want to see how long they can endure."
"General Sima," a general walked in.
"What's the matter?"
"The decree of the imperial court has come down" "Read the results directly to me" Sima Yi's eyes lit up, and his spirit was uplifted.
"Your Majesty agrees with your strategy of retreating to Xiliang and fighting, but you must ensure that all the Wu troops of Bashu are dragged into the Xiliang battlefield, the court is sympathetic to your current predicament, and will send King Peng down to supervise the battle, and the court will support you with 10,000 soldiers and horses, commanded by Zhang Lu, the king of Hanzhong, I hope you can cooperate with Zhang Ren to defend Xiliang well" "Your Majesty agreed" Sima Yi was overjoyed in his heart, but his brows quickly furrowed, and he muttered: "Let King Peng supervise the battle, and let Zhang Lu lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to reinforce, this is a bit interesting."
King Peng is Cao Zhang, a young man, he doesn't care very much, after all, no matter how smart Cao Zhang is, he has no qualifications in the army, and he can't play well, and he can't suppress him and Zhang Ren, the two generals, no matter what.
I believe that Cao Cao means that he is afraid that he and Zhang Ren will not get along, so he sent Cao Zhang down as a lubricant to reconcile the Mao Dun between them.
This is considered well-intentioned.
But Zhang Lu's move is somewhat interesting.
Zhang Lu's 10,000 soldiers and horses he didn't look forward to very much, in the battlefield where their hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were fighting, although these 10,000 soldiers and horses had some effect, they were not very needed.
Most importantly Whether Cao Cao asked Zhang Lu to stare at them, or let them stare at Zhang Lu, this is not necessarily.
"But then we have a way out" Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and a grim smile appeared in his expression: "In this way, the battle between us and Wu Jun will be much easier."
If you can retreat to Liangzhou, this battle will be much easier to fight, but you can withdraw at any time if you can't fight, you can advance and retreat freely, and the space to play has become much larger.
"General Sima, do you want to inform General Zhang Ren of this news?"
Yang Xiu said.
"Don't just yet" Sima Yi thought for a while and shook his head: "Zhang Ren has no way to retreat, so he finally made up his mind to fight this battle, I can't let his confidence waver at this juncture, and even if we have to retreat to Liangzhou in the end, we need a victory."
"Will we win this battle?"
Yang Xiu squinted.
"Yes" Sima Yi's expression was firm, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and under the gloomy smile, there was a trace of arrogance and confidence: "Now that I have the initiative in control, they will lose" "Initiative" Yang Xiu was puzzled.
"Yang Xiu, you immediately pass on my order, let all the soldiers and horses on the periphery of Xia Wei City retreat to the city, and then you prepare to retreat to Liangzhou, and let the scouts of the Wu army outside the city see it."
Sima Yi said coldly: "I don't believe that they can't be fooled like this."
"Yes" When Yang Xiu heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly went down to prepare. t1706231537:
